If they’re used to being raised alone then they won’t get along with other cats, even of the same breed—I had a Siamese cat that did not like other cats. Used to attack them.
After the first one left us…I later got 2 Siamese kittens, raised them together. They get along just fine, always playing together etc. I don’t know if they’ll be friendly with other cats though, they might or might not be. Each cat or kitten has a unique personality, in a way.
That’s the rumour at least. They have a reputation of not being lovey snuggly cats in general. Although, I did meet one siamese that was affectionate. One. I am a cat person, they usually come up to me, but siamese seem to be more aloof. Other breeds are much more sociable from what I have experienced. Maine Coon especially.
Depends on personality, interactions with another of their family, etc… How much sunlight shines on them… >_>
I’ve met a lot of cats. Some hate me on sight, some love me on sight. Just like humans, except on four legs, fur, night vision, etc. All different!
I have had cats ever since I can remember (one is leaning on my arm now as I type) but only had one Saimese. It merely tolerated other cats but was no more or less aloof than others that I have had in my life. I think it is a cat thing, not a breed thing.
It’s certainly true of mine. He gets into terrible battles with other cats, though fortunately through windows and glass doors. Only once did he do paw-to-paw combat with another cat, and it wasn’t pretty.
However, I suspect his animus toward other animals has more to do with having always lived alone indoors, never developing feline social skills, rather than about his breed (he’s mixed).
No. I love Siamese and have had 4 of them over the years, including my newest female that is 4 in June. She is a sweetheart, and gets along great with my other cat. Siamese are smart, sweet and very independent cats.
@Adirondackwannabe She’s a sweetheart. Big fat bummer though, she ran into a big bush of poison oak today, no cuddles tonight. I wiped her down but am mega paranoid. My old property was P.O. free for the most part. lol
